Stereo Set!

At Sweetwater, we have microphones to handle even the most specialized applications. The Neumann KM 184 Stereo Pair is the perfect example. Need a microphone to record percussion, cymbals or brass instruments? Neumann's KM 184 Stereo Pair is capable of handling high sound pressure levels with ease - as high as 138dB before overloading.

Sweetwater Advice

Jeff Barnett
A classic. The KM 184 is a standard fixture in any serious mic collection. It's the quintessential mic that other small-diaphragm microphones seek to emulate.
Kenny Bergle
Getting a pair of these excellent KM184s is a great idea. If you are lucky enough to get one, you'll want the second as soon as you hear the first! Do yourself a favor and get a pair straight away. You will be ecstatic that you did!
Paul Lea
This is the modern standard in small-diaphram stereo mic'ing. A truly indispensible set of microphones for your studio arsenal. These mics will always find use as drum overheads, acoustic instruments, and guitar amps.
